il Buco New York Reviews from The Last Year
Food and ambiance here were top tier here.
i cam in around noon and it was fairly quiet. Overall, the decor is rustic and extremely nice. Would definitely say this is a perfect late night. Would highly recommend stopping in here.

The food is good and tasty, the service is great but the lady at the HOST podium need more training at understanding how to welcome customer. Hello, good evening, Welcome to Il Buco ! No, you won't hear any of that. She doesnt care about customer experience ! She seat us at the counter (no problem). After we seat, she ash us to move to be at the corner of the counter almost on the lap of the other customer on the other side. No place for the plate. We pointed that to her attention. She doesnt care ! we were pressed like sardines with no place to move and eating almost in the plate of the other customer. . . and you want us to call that a nice experience !?? We were referred buy th every nice sales person from the home goods store. The bartender was great. The host ?...... she needs to go !

Food was top teir for a date night that won't break your bank. Food was very good and the patio was cute. The server was kind and had great wine recommendations.

If the ambiance is paired with delicious small Mediterranean dishes, creating a hybrid Provence/Tuscan feel is your thing. You can have it here on this special street named Bond.
Really great Italian food and good vibes!! Highly recommend
Really great Italian food and good vibes!! Highly recommend for a GNO or date night in the soho area
One of my three favorite restaurants in NYC.
A cozy, old-world, but not formal atmosphere, a lovely and unobtrusive wait staff, an extensive wine list that always turns up a perfect wine in a wide range of prices, and absolutely spot-on food. On my recent visit, I had a heavenly gazpacho and a risotto that was so delicately cooked, which is not easy (especially in a restaurant), and was so flavorful. But you can't go wrong with any choice. . .
Good food, good service .
my friend paid for the bill because it was my bday last Friday We never received the bill , nor they bothered to ask. I have no clue how much it was, tip etc. I made it there because I like the restaurant and it was 4 bloccks from my apt. But nothing special for a birthday celebration!
Just terrific.
Authentic, tasty, clean, and enjoyable. In doors or out. End it with the gelato sampler trio
Nice service and ambiance.
Overpriced for what you get. Food is okay - nothing to write home about. NYC is sort of full of places like this.
Amazing food, great service, great wine, and fine decor.
Not packed and bustling like other nyc restaurants but definitely popular. Highly recommend.
10/10 dining experience truly.
From the moment I walked in I felt transported into a quaint little european town village vibe place. The ambiance was perfect. Service was also so lovely and very attentive, we never waited long while waiting for food or water. Ordered a ton and some not pictured: pulpo, tonno, bikini, tagliatelle, (another pasta with sausage), tarte for dessert. Everything was amazing - it's been a while since I have felt blown away by Italian food but this really did the job! It was a little pricey but worth every penny. I will be back. My favorites were definitely the pulpo, tagliatelle, and tarte dessert.
One of these two stars is for the ambiance, which is truly
One of these two stars is for the ambiance, which is truly perfect. The second star is for the Cannolicchi pasta dish. The lack of stars is for service and everything else we ate, including chicken, king crab ceviche, and burrata. The chicken just tasted like someone dumped a bunch of herbs on it and threw it in the oven. There was also hardly any chicken at all on the bone and I still had no interest in finishing it because of its flavor. The king crab ceviche was 10% crab, 90% mixture- do not waste your money on this. The burrata was also very small but it was burrata. The service started pretty well- our server was nice and helpful with selecting our wine. He did forget one of our 2 pasta dishes though and then we didn't really see him again. We had to flag someone else down to see if our third dish was coming (there were 3 of us and only 2 dishes came out). The manager said they hadn't forgotten it and it was on the way... 20 minutes later our pasta came out just around when we had finished eating everything else. They were not really apologetic and didn't offer anything- I told them I'm not paying for a dish that came out after my friends had finished their meals and then they comped it but you really shouldn't have to say that. Disappointing experience overall which is a shame because it's a great space in a great location.
It is RARE to go to a restaurant with such great ambiance,
It is RARE to go to a restaurant with such great ambiance, food service and value. $15 for a glass of Prosecco at this caliber restaurant was very reasonable. I felt transported outside of NYC in this very cozy space. Very romantic ambiance at night with the lights very low and candles. The service was impeccable. We always had a full carafe and glasses of water. Our waitress was a pro. The food was simple and delicious. The croquettes and dipper sauce were lovely. The bikini sandwich was delicious but a little over powered by the mozz cheese, couldn't taste the truffle. Also the homemade bread is truly delicious! Note - for party of 2, note a lot of tables are communal so make sure to note if you want a 2 top!
This is really like a 2.
5, but between 2 and 3 I would lean more towards 3 because of the service from our waitress and the cocktails. It was not on my list of restaurants, but me and the wife were looking for a brunch place with availability that was pet friendly and Il Buco was available. If you are in a pinch maybe give it a shot, but other than that maybe look elsewhere. Ambiance As I mentioned, we came with our dog so we sat outside and cannot really say much about the ambiance. Outdoors was cozy however, and they have heaters too which made it more pleasant. The inside did seem very cozy though when I went to the bathroom. Service The waitress was very accommodating with our dog, which really heightens the experience when eating out with your furry friend. She was not over the top attentive, but gave off a good relaxed vibe. Cocktails The drinks here were really good and the house cocktails were creative. We ordered a couple different drinks from the house menu and they were all spot on. Food Bistecca ($46) This is where things start to fall off a bit at Il Buco in my opinion. We ordered the steak medium well but it came well done. It is supposed to be wagyu beef but nothing about it was anything more special than a regular skirt steak. Flavor was just ok as well. Spaghetti ($30) This was my favorite dish that we ate here. The pasta was cooked very well and the flavor of the sauce with the tuna fish worked perfectly. However, I would say that the dish is rather simple and probably something you could recreate at home and save the 30 bucks. Risotto ($32) Because Infatuation said that this risotto was perfect, we were really excited to order it. But it was far from perfect. It was just very bland in our opinion, and after trying some really good risotto at other places, this would not even be in the radar in terms of comparison. I have a friend who is just a regular home cook whos risotto would blow this out of the water.
This place has been around forever, it seems.
There is a reason why they have been around; they execute well across the board. The ambiance is cozy and not the modernized bistro styles of today. The food is nothing to write home about but not bad either. I'd stop by again for a glass or two of wine and small bites.
I received a gift certificate for $200.
Tried to use it and was told only $59.55 remained. I paid remainder of bill + tip with my AMEX. Steve, the manager, would only credit my AMEX $129.90 unless I agreed to stiff the waiter $10.55. I told him to give it all to the waiter and confirm that he in fact did give to the waiter. Of course, Steve never wrote back. The food is fine but the management is immoral.
Very quaint and cozy Italian spot! The interior has cute
Very quaint and cozy Italian spot! The interior has cute wooden decorations and is dimly lit, making for a great ambiance. The service is attentive and polite. The food was really good as well! We tried the ricotta and octopus for appetizer and both were stellar. For my main, I got the spaghetti, which was perfectly al dente. For dessert, the tarte de pera was nutty and delicious. Unfortunately, we were not a fan of the bomboloni dessert, which tasted like it had been sitting out too long. Overall, if you want a cozy and delicious Italian meal, I would recommend this place!
So cute inside, great food & service! They made my
So cute inside, great food & service! They made my anniversary very special :) thanks again.
Favorite italian restaurant in nyc so far.
Unbelievable food - loved the risotto. As good as a risotto can get. Wait staff and bar staff were so friendly and on point. And the atmosphere is quaint and sophisticated.

Enjoyed a pleasant weekend lunch experience, despite slightly busy servers on Saturday. The highlight was undoubtedly the delicious food.
Il Buco
An extremely authentic Italian dining experience. I felt I had teleported to a family run restaurant in the heart of Firenze or Bologna. Came here with mom as she was in town for the week. The only res was for outdoor and I was a bit skeptical, but it was a great overall experience. We both got a glass of Chianti and started with the Salumi platter and the Kale salad. Eating with mom is the best because she eats like a mouse, so I essentially get my entree and 93% of hers. I ordered the Bistecca and she got the Torchio. A perfect steak-pasta pairing like Kobe-Shaq, Bonnie and Clyde, Shrek and Donkey, Kobe-Pau, etc... Everything was fantastic and Il Buco has become a go-to Italian spot in the city for me.

Suggest you dine elsewhere
Slow service, fish dish that was tough and over cooked, artichoke appetizer that was burnt, crab and wild rice dish that was tasteles, and chairs that would be comfortable if you weighed 100 pounds or less ... need I say more?

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
